Welcome to the Apple community.

Your profile states that you are using 10.6.8, 10.7.2 or better is required for iCloud.

You can however still use mail with 10.6.8, unfortunately you cannot use the rest of the iCloud features.

Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.

Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

Entering iCloud email settings manually in Tiger
